What our students say

“Saya telah lama menyimpan hasrat untuk mendalami ilmu agama secara lebih tersusun, namun niat itu sering tertangguh kerana komitmen kerja dan kesibukan harian.

Apabila saya menyertai Sijil Pengajian Islam (SPI), saya mendapati suasana pembelajarannya amat kondusif, khususnya bagi orang dewasa yang ingin kembali menuntut ilmu. Barisan asatizah mengajar dengan penuh dedikasi, kesabaran dan hikmah, menjadikan setiap sesi mudah difahami serta dekat dengan realiti kehidupan.

Apa yang paling saya hargai ialah setiap modul bukan sahaja padat dengan ilmu, malah sangat praktikal dan relevan untuk diamalkan dalam kehidupan seharian. Pengalaman mengikuti SPI benar-benar menguatkan keyakinan saya bahawa tidak pernah ada istilah terlambat untuk menuntut ilmu agama.

Selagi Allah SWT mengurniakan kita usia dan kesempatan, sentiasalah berusaha memperbaiki diri dengan ilmu yang bermanfaat sebagai bekalan untuk dunia dan akhirat.”

F.A.Qs

It is a diploma programme focused on Islamic law, jurisprudence, and core Islamic sciences, with an emphasis on understanding and applying Shariah principles in daily life.

No prior Hifz is required to enrol. The programme includes a progressive Hifz Al-Quran component across all six semesters, meaning memorisation is developed as part of the curriculum itself. Learners begin the Hifz journey together, guided by qualified instructors throughout the programme.

Full-time students complete the six-semester programme over three years, while part-time students spread the same curriculum over five years. Both tracks lead to the same UNIMEL-accredited diploma. The part-time option is designed around working adults, those serving National Service, or learners with family commitments.

The diploma is awarded in partnership with UNIMEL, a recognised Islamic university, and is accepted as a qualification for progression to bachelor’s degree programmes in Islamic studies. For specific employment or professional recognition queries, we recommend confirming directly with the relevant institution or employer.
Classes are conducted in both English and Malay, with the language varying by module and lecturer. Core theological subjects are taught accessibly for English-speaking learners. A working knowledge of Malay is helpful but not a strict requirement to follow the programme. English communication skills are also developed through dedicated English modules.

The next intake begins in December. To register your interest, complete the enquiry form on this page or reach out via WhatsApp. Our team will follow up with admissions guidance, required documents, and payment details.
